Wonder how much Profit, though. Since there’s only upfront cost and then a massive long tail collecting Google Revenue for 3-4 years the unknowing and unsophisticated user keeps it installed (all profit at that point). Chrome uninstalling would be quite the disruption to their cash cow.

In the words if George Carlin (may he rest in peace), “Think of how stupid the average person is, and realize half of them are stupider than that.” The second half are who this part of IAC’s profit thrives on.
